Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2017-06-19 12:29 - Updated: 2026-06-17 01:19

Severity

7.3 (High) - CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Summary

In EMC VNX2 versions prior to OE for File 8.1.9.211 and VNX1 versions prior to OE for File 7.1.80.8, a local authenticated user can load a maliciously crafted file in the search path which may potentially allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code on the targeted VNX Control Station system, aka an uncontrolled search path vulnerability.
